A Darn Simple But Darn Nice Touchdown

Postby Aharon » Sat Jul 29, 2017 1:36 am

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Presenting a darn simple but darn nice landing on runway 20 of NZCH Christchurch International Airport located 12 kilometres to the northwest of the city centre of Christchurch, New Zealand

On final runway approach with cool background view of entire city landscape of Christchurch

TOUCHDOWN

Still producing cool tire smoke while front landing gear glides down slowly in most graceful manner

Front wheel landing gear making runway contact producing more cool tire smoke

Slowing down on runway

Exiting from runway 20 into taxiway D toward gate

Thank you for viewing. Stay tuned for next exciting flight.

Nice landing Aahron, great shots. How do you get the navigation lights to stand out like that?

That the Vistaliner? Still looks great aye. If you like the 100/200 you should splash out on the CS or Milviz payware models, fabulous detail, wicked VC cockpits etc. NZ repaints avail for both...

Deeknow,

Thanks for kind words. As for navigation lights, it was by editing software.

Yes good old fashioned Vistaliners!!

I avoid payware add on planes LOL They are notorious for memory resource hogs. LOL

I am happy with Tinmouse 737-200 version 2 and I heard that world famous Erik Cantu is planning to make new freeware 737-200 model.

By the way, if you know where I can find different SUPERB CRISP SHARP Air New Zealand livery for TinMouse 737-200, please let me know as all of you are expert in New Zealand aviation and I am not.

Regards,

Dbcunnz,

I wish!!! Unfortunately, it is FSX default Christchurch city landscape and FSX default NZCH airport scenery. Is there superb NZCH scenery for FSX use, please?

Spltpin,

Thanks for your kind words.

Nice to meet both of you!

Nice crisp shots Aharon,

There is a superb version of NZCH, which was created by Doug & Ian, and is still one my my all time fav's to fly around.
